Thanks, but I don’t need to be “educated” by anybody. It may come as a shock, but being a person of color doesn’t mean you’re right about everything and have the automatic authority to tell others what to do and how to behave. And I sincerely doubt that you’d be okay with a white person of any gender correcting you.

I can’t speak for everyone, but I get upset because it groups all white people together and doesn’t look at individual experiences. I grew up in a 60% black city. I’ve spent most of my life being the representative for my race, being the only white person in a room, having to deal with “all white people do this” stereotypes, and being sidelined for being white because the black people in charge favor other black people. This list might be true for a lot of people in America, but it isn’t for me. I don’t relate to anything here and I can’t even say that outside of the internet without coming off as blind to my “privilege” or racist.

What I find interesting is that no one ever seems to mention the thousands of African, Asian, and Middle Eastern immigrants that pour into Europe every year and adopt the culture there. Or does that not count because Western culture is somehow not white culture?

- Obamacare is not even close to the Republican plan or the plan introduced by Romney in Mass.
- Republicans are the ones that named it Obamacare to put all the blame on him
- It is a complete failure by itself, mostly because Democrats passed it without reading it and lied to the people to make it popular
